- smoldesu 6y agoWhile this is true, "My Phone" doesn't do a great job of staying consistently connected, and it even fails to do a lot of the features that Connect can offer. I still prefer Connect on Windows.
- tssva 6y agoI however have no issues staying connected with "My Phone" and when I used it occasionally there were issues with "KDE Connect". Also the feature I use most is pushing a website to my laptop so I can continue there later. With "My Phone" this works whether I am at home or out and about. Also it works when my laptop is currently not online. "KDE Connect" requires a VPN connection when I am not on the same network and the feature to push to another device doesn't work if that device is offline at the time. I understand that the difference is that one uses a server and one doesn't, and for some people not having Microsoft in the middle is an advantage but for others it is not.
- mrguyorama 6y agoI thought that was samsung only
- tssva 6y agoMirroring of apps on the phone is Samsung only. The rest of the features are available on all android phones.
